ANY advantage/s to psa 3, I just installed over psa 2 ?! DOES either contribute to serious problem (see below), that I and others seem to be having :

did not get to use v.2 before doing installing v.3 (to KNOW if there is any difference/reason to use one or the other) BUT - I am NOW HAVING SAME PROBLEMS AS some others read in this forum, RE: v.3 OVERRIDING all other (both an automatic - and a manual activated) PHOTO/VIDEO downloading/editing programs on harddrive !

NOT up on any of this - but 'solutions' by Jute & Dennehy have not worked yet to 'disable' auto-intercept/activation (then crashing in conflict with other app's doing same thing), so... HELP, PLEASE ?

At the top of the screen, click on Edit, then (at the bottom of the drop-down menu) Preferences.

In the white left margin of the dialog box, it will probably indicate that it is showing "General" preferences. Click on "File" instead.

Where it says "Use Photoshop Album Starter to view jpeg image files" uncheck the box.

Then click "OK."

Then do what the previous instructions said--Open up Explorer and pick an image. Right click on the image and pick Open
with... and then find the application you want to open these images with. If you then check the box that says ALWAYS open with this application... that will sort out the problem.

I'll keep my fingers crossed for you!

I can't believe we bought Creative Suite and Photoshop, only to have Photoshop hijacked by a free download. I'll bet that will be fixed by the time the next edition comes out!

I downloaded Adobe Photoshop Album Edition 3.0. I just want to know why I didn't get a code to unlock my album. I think that the code went to junkmail and I and me my self deleted it. Still I want to have the CODE.HELP, HELP Thanks for your help.

I have an 'Anti-Spam' file at the bottom of my Outlook Express files, to which all unknown 'from: addresses' are sent.
If I haven't approved a sender in my InBox Address Book the message goes to the AntiSpam (AS) file. I have the ability to review all AS mail before deleting them. If you can do similar, that's probably where your code message is hiding.

I downloaded Adobe Photoshop Album Edition 3 and everytime I try to register it says "sending failed". I don't understand why I can't register or at least get my pictures outta there so I can use them. Please help!!!

i have 2 computers, each at a different location, but with the same email address at each location.. i deleted adobe photo album starter 2.0 and replaced with 3.0 i can not get an unlock code on the second computer. when i installed 2.0 i received an unlock code for each computer. does 3.0 provide each computer a different unlock code as did 2.0 or does 3.0 use the same unlock code for each computer? when i try to register one computer gives me an unlock code and the other says that i will receive an unlock by email which i never receive.advise. thank you. steveZ

I have 2 computers, each at a different location, both with windows XP service pack 2.I have a different email address at each location. I deleted adobe photo album starter 2.0 and replaced with 3.0 I cannot get an unlock code on the second computer. One computer received an unlock code, the other computer says that an unlock will be emailed to me, however i do not receive. how can I get the unlock code for the second computer? advise. thanks, SteveZ

When I send pictures by email from starter album the recipient gets only giberish instead of the picture when she clicks on the attachment. The copy I get is perfect when I open it. What must she do to be able to view the picture? She downloaded Adobe Reader but that had no effect. Anyone have the answer?

after using Album 3.0 for years, I suddenly got the license agreement followed by a registration screen when opening Album starter 3.0. when I enter the code, the whole app shuts down. Any suggestions?

I have read several post with the same concerns I am having. No CODE, after I realized I had to turn off my firewall. I have tried so many times now I have lost count. Makes you wonder if Adobe is falling down on the job.

Please help. I am brand new to Photoshop Album Starter Edition and I don't know what I am doing and I don't have anyone to ask. I don't have an instruction book to read and I don't even know enough to put in a subject in the Help section. This is the free Photoshop that comes with Abobe. I have learned how to crop and do red eye. I would like to know how to send pictures via email, but when I try to send them, only one gets through. I need lots of advice. Thanks, mariellen

Your pictures are not "in" the program, it is only cataloging what you have. The pictures are [probably] just in folders in My Pictures. You can always make copies in another folder by just dragging them out of PSE SE to the folder you want.

How do I stop Photoshop Starter Album from opening automatically when I insert a USB memory stick. I use these sticks primarily for data transfer and when Album starts at insertion of the stick it prevents Windows Explorer from displaying the removable drive.

I would like to move my pictures from Adobe photshop 3.0 album starter to my personal files off of Windows XP. I am not interested in purchasing Adobe at this time and do not want to loose my prescious
photos as I have deleted them from my camera. I have tried to send them to "my pictures" but I can't seem to do that. Thank you so much for your time. My account number with Adobe customer service is 3150190759

Hi Maria,

Actually the photos are not stored "in" Photoshop Album... this is more
of an indexing system like windows explorer, but more useful.

The images are stored on your hard drive wherever you initially put
them. For example, if you right click on an image, and then click
properties at the bottom of the list, you will see what folder the image
is actually in. This version does not have the move function, but you
can move them from Windows explorer... just use PSA to find them... and
then you can move them manually. Keep in mind that once you move an
image, you will need to run the reconnect function under the file menu
to make sure that PSA knows where the images are.
